TLDR
The journey of extracellular vesicles from the primary tumor to the future metastatic organ, with a focus on the mechanisms used by EVs to target organs with a specific tropism (i.e., organotropism), and the formation of a pro‐inflammatory and immuno‐tolerant microenvironment is described.Abstract:
Among a plethora of functions, extracellular vesicles released by primary tumors spread in the organism and reach distant organs where they can induce the formation of a premetastatic niche. This constitutes a favorable microenvironment for circulating tumor cells which facilitates their seeding and colonization. In this review, we describe the journey of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from the primary tumor to the future metastatic organ, with a focus on the mechanisms used by EVs to target organs with a specific tropism (i.e., organotropism). We then highlight important tumor EV cargos in the context of premetastatic niche formation and summarize their known effects on extracellular matrix remodeling, angiogenesis, vessel permeabilization, resident cell activation, recruitment of foreign cells, and ultimately the formation of a pro-inflammatory and immuno-tolerant microenvironment. Finally, we discuss current experimental limitations and remaining opened questions in light of metastatic diagnosis and potential therapies targeting PMN formation.read more

Circulating extracellular vesicles and tumor cells: sticky partners in metastasis.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors discuss the central role of cellular adhesion molecules (CAMs) that are present on extracellular vesicles (EVs) and CTs, as well as their endothelial ligands, in dictating their arrest site and their capacity to exit the vasculature.

The Role of Long Noncoding RNA (lncRNAs) Biomarkers in Renal Cell Carcinoma
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors focused on MALAT1, a marker of serious pathological changes and a factor in the promotion of tumorigenesis, RCAT1 (tumour promoter in RCC), DUXAP9 (a plausible marker of localized ccRCC), TCL6 (exerting tumour-suppressive effects in renal cancer), LINC00342 (acting as an oncogene), AGAP2 Antisense1 (plausible predictor of RCC progression), DLEU2 (factor promoting tumours growth via the regulation of epithelial-mesenchymal transition), NNT-AS1 (sponge of miR-22 contributing to tumour progression), lnc-LSG1 (a factor that may stimulate CCRCC metastasis).

TL;DR: It is reported that repetitive UV exposure of primary cutaneous melanomas in a genetically engineered mouse model promotes metastatic progression, independent of its tumour-initiating effects, and that ulcerated primary human melanomas with abundant neutrophils and reactive angiogenesis frequently show angiotropism and a high risk for metastases.

TL;DR: It is shown that progesterone-induced signalling triggers migration of cancer cells from early lesions shortly after HER2 activation, but promotes proliferation in advanced primary tumour cells.

TL;DR: It is shown that cancer-derived extracellular vesicles, mediators of cell–cell communication via delivery of proteins and microRNAs (miRNAs), trigger the breakdown of BBB, and that systemic injection of brain metastatic cancer cell-derived EVs promoted brain metastasis of breast cancer cell lines and are preferentially incorporated into the brain in vivo.

TL;DR: These findings offer in vivo validation of the concept that exosome secretion can exert key pathophysiologic roles during tumor formation and progression, but they also highlight the idiosyncratic character of the tumor context.
